The next time you go through the area you should try visiting New Salem Park...it is about thirty minutes north of Springfield, and is a replica of the town when he lived there. When I was young it was staffed with lots of employees and volunteers on weekends for fascinating living displays. Now they only have the budget to do it on occasional weekends, but it is still worth a visit. They open the cabins up so you can walk through and see what more rustic living was like at the time....fascinating stuff!Amanda Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09588299764301629312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5513901919021562749.post-69226458691492049732017-06-27T14:58:22.955-04:002017-06-27T14:58:22.955-04:00Thank you for your kind remarks, Kathryn!Thank you for your kind remarks, Kathryn!Julie Hamiltonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15815819183166191706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5513901919021562749.post-32899310338112829052017-06-27T14:23:57.589-04:002017-06-27T14:23:57.589-04:00What a fabulous place to visit!

As someone who didn&#39;t grow up in Illinois, I didn&#39;t make my first trip until I was an adult. I&#39;m glad I made another trip in April and was able to share these digital images with others who appreciate our American history.Julie Hamiltonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15815819183166191706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5513901919021562749.post-46773135110562866062017-06-10T12:41:34.684-04:002017-06-10T12:41:34.684-04:00Wow!
